Navigating hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Key thoughts from leading physicians


This webinar is on-demand and can be viewed at your convenience.

Healthcare still has a lot to learn about hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a condition that often goes undiagnosed until symptoms progress significantly. 

From diagnosis to treatment, numerous opportunities exist to improve awareness and care for the condition, so where do clinicians start? The American Heart Association recently convened experts to uncover more about what patients actually experience when navigating the disease, and how healthcare teams can best approach patient care for HCM moving forward. 

Key learning points:
 
  • Hear firsthand account of how a physician from The Christ Hospital (Cincinnati, OH) navigated the disease as a patient, and how his experience has affected his approach to patient care
  • Lessons in treating HCM from Northwell Health (Manhasset, NY)
  • A candid conversation with a patient about the HCM lived experience
